So, a little bit of history now - the MacPac MicroLight was one of my first forays (around 1998) into the world of lightweight camping. A sturdy, reliable, one-man tent, featuring (in it's day) all the latest mod-cons, bells and whistles - a low-profile, double walled easy pitch traverse hoop design... and all in at about 1.9kg. 

So, what's the bad? Well, internal height was distinctly lacking (mustering a mere 90cm) and absorbant groundsheet are the two that spring to mind but other than that, sturdy as a rock, until the latter led to mildew and rotting and forced an early retirement. I do miss this little fella and the tiny pack size (apx. 60cm x 20cm) - I guess he did teach me a couple of lessons - don't scringe on headroom if you can help it and - even with today's fabrics - carry a groundsheet/footprint.
